2015 Overworld Dreams:

This is the PowerPoint slide I made to hype myself up when dreaming about turning my prototype into a fully explorable world.

Looking back, I can confirm, the game has all those biomes in a playable state right now.

Can't believe I drew this Pokémon fangame map on graph paper in high school instead of paying attention in class... And now, over a decade later, it's the region for my indie game with actual players running around on their own adventures!

Gather around, everyone! 💎

The #BattleGemPonies Act1 Alpha Playtest Build is LIVE on Itch!

Hope my game's trio lives up to the standards being set today. 🔥💧🌿 #BattleGemPonies

Aw, c'mon! We're missing out on Nintendo eShop's Horse Game sale too... 🤦🏽

This week's sales would've been legendary for us. Life changing!

When you defeat a shiny, glimmering, uniquely colored pony in the wild, it drops a special item that allows you to change the color of any single pony you choose...

Never gonna stop punching the air about missing this opportunity by choosing to launch on mobile first. 🫠

(Development's running a year behind schedule and the self-inflicted suffering is nonstop.)
